  • Enter your starting location and destination in Travel From/To.
  • Enter the miles traveled in Miles.
  • The amount your company reimburses you for travel appears in Rate. If your system administrator gave you editing privileges on the Setup tab of Vision Company Expense Report Configuration, you can change this amount.
  • After you enter data in Miles, the Total field displays the total mileage expense. Navigator enters this amount in the Amount field on the Expense Report form.

If using Vision Multicompany and Multicurrency, Navigator also checks the Currency Code when miles/kilometers are assigned on the Travel Detail dialog. The expense line's currency and the functional currency for the employee's company must be the same when there are miles or kilometers recorded.

Note: The dialog box may display Kilometers instead of Miles, depending on the option selected on the Setup tab of Company Expense Report Configuration.
